		                        			Objective:The aim of this study is to investigate the expression of p53 and PD-L1 in ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy specimens of breast cancer, and to analyze their application value.Methods:Ninety-eight patients who underwent ultrasound-guided coarse needle puncture biopsy and radical operation admitted to our hospital from Aug. 2021 to Sep. 2022 were selected as the study objects. The clinical data of patients were collected, the expression of p53 and PD-L1 in puncture biopsy specimens and radical surgical excision specimens were detected by immunohistochemical experiment, and the consistency was analyzed. Statistical test was used to analyze the relationship between the expression of p53 and PD-L1 and the pathological parameters of patients.Results:In 98 patients, the positive rate of p53 and PD-L1 in core needle biopsy specimens was 48.0% and 55.1%, respectively. The positive rate of p53 and PD-L1 in radical operative specimens was 62.2% and 61.2%, respectively. The concordance rates of p53 and PD-L1 were 63.6% ( κ=0.441, P<0.001) and 65.3% ( κ=0.505, P<0.001) between core needle biopsy specimens and radical operative specimens. Taking the results of radical operative specimens as the standard, the cases with positive expression of p53 and PD-L1 in core needle biopsy specimens were all positive in radical operative specimens, and the specificity was 100%. p53 was determined negative in 25 coarse needle biopsy specimens, however, p53 was positive in radical surgical specimens, and the false negative rate of coarse needle puncture was 49.0 %. PD-L1 was determined negative in 20 coarse needle biopsy specimens, but it was determined positive in radical operative specimens, and the false negative rate of coarse needle puncture was 41.7 %. There was no significant correlation between the consistency rate of p53 and PD-L1 expression and the number of puncture cores, the length of puncture cores, the length of invasive carcinoma and the proportion of invasive carcinoma (all P>0.05). The expressions of p53 and PD-L1 in core needle biopsy specimens were significantly correlated with tumor size, pTNM stage and Ki67 (all P<0.05), but not with age, BMI, family history, histological type or Nottingham histological grade (all P>0.05) . Conclusion:The concordance rates of p53 and PD-L1 expression between ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy specimens and radical resection specimens of breast cancer were 63.6% and 65.3%, respectively, and the specificity of positive detection results were both 100%, which has certain guiding significance for the clinical treatment of breast cancer.

		                        			 With the birth rate and survival rate of premature infants significantly increased, the risk of premature infant-related complications after discharge also gradually increased. Due to the parents′ lack of care experience to take care of premature infants, premature infants are prone to high re-admission rate, family pressure and burden. Therefore, strengthening transitional care, promoting the safe transition of premature infants from neonatal intensive care unit to home, and promoting the growth and development of premature infants are of great significance to improve the quality of life of premature infants. Transitional nursing of premature infants abroad has been carried out for nearly 30 years, while domestic research is still in its infancy and has not been carried out in a wide range of research and application. Therefore, this article summarized the concept, significance and nursing mode of premature infant transitional care, so as to provide reference for medical personnel to carry out premature infant transitional care.

		                        			 OBJECTIVE: To compare the diagnostic value of high-k V X-ray chest photography and chest high-resolution computed tomography( HRCT) in the diagnosis of pulmonary thesaurosis induced by dust of iron and its compounds(hereinafter called the iron pulmonary thesaurosis). METHODS: A total of 80 workers exposed to iron oxide dust in a magnetic material factory were collected as the study subjects by convenience sampling method,and they were examined with high-k V X-ray chest photography and HRCT. Differences between the two methods in the diagnosis of iron pulmonary thesaurosis were compared. RESULTS: Of the 80 workers,only 5 of them(6. 2%) showed no abnormal changes in chest HRCT,others showed varying degrees of diffuse distribution of air-cavity nodules and ground-glass lesions. High-k V X-ray chest photography and chest HRCT diagnosis of iron pulmonary thesaurosis accounted for 8. 8%( 7/80) and 37. 5%(30/80) with extreme mild degree,and 21. 3%(17/80) and 26. 3%(21/80) with mild degree respectively. The diagnostic rates for iron pulmonary thesaurosis were 30. 0%( 24/80) and 63. 8%( 51/80),respectively. There was consistency between the two methods for the diagnosis of iron pneumoconiosis( Kappa = 0. 411,P < 0. 01). The chest HRCT has a higher diagnostic classification and diagnosis rate compared with the high-k V X-ray chest photography( P <0. 01). CONCLUSION:s The chest HRCT has a higher diagnostic grade and higher diagnostic rate for lung siderosis compared with the high-k V X-ray chest photography,which is helpful for the early diagnosis of the disease.

Methods MFC gastric cancer bearing mice were employed to perform anti-tumor experiment in vivo in this study. A total of eligible 48 mice were randomly divided into model group, DDP positive control group, modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose groups, modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose combined with DDP groups. The treatment was conducted once a day, and lasted for 14 continuous days. After the last administration of gavage orally treatment, all mice were anaesthetized and killed by cervical dislocation method to obtain tumor tissue completely for further HE staining measure and detection of TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 in tumor tissue with the method of RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry. Meanwhile, the tumor growth was observed and the general conditions of mice were recorded. Results The model group was rich in tumor cells; the sizes of cells were different; the volume was large; the nucleus was deeply stained and the heterotypic shape was obvious, and the small focal necrosis was seen. The number of tumor cells in each administration group was reduced; the arrangement was loose; the cell volume was significantly reduced, and the nuclear pyknosis was reduced. Cell necrosis significantly increased; the number of interstitial blood vessels decreased; collagen fibers increased, especially in modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose combined with DDP groups. Compared with the model group, the expressions of TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 mRNA and protein decreased in each administration group. TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 were lighter and weakly positive expressed in modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pillshigh-dose and low-dose combined with DDP groups, the protein changes were more obvious Compared with DDP positive control group, modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose groups. Conclusion Modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills can down-regulate TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 expression of tumor tissue in MFC gastric cancer bearing mice at both mRNA and protein levels to play anti-tumor pharmacology action.
